Sharing this heartwarming PM from ZST3250

Wed Apr 01, 2015 11:50 am

This so touched me I wanted to share it with you all. I have no idea who this person is, but I'm glad I've had such a positive impact on their life:

(Begin Quoted PM from ZST3250 sent to me today)

Isn't the internet great. It allows **** like yourself to say **** that would, in real life
get your head cracked open.

Hopefully you'll suffer the same fate **** ****.

Please turn to the loaded gun in your drawer, put it in your mouth, and pull the trigger,
blowing your brains out. You'll be doing the whole world a favor. ****.

I would love to smash your face in until it no longer resembled anything human, faggot.


Die painfully okay? Prefearbly by getting crushed to death in a
garbage compactor, by getting your face cut to ribbons with a
pocketknife, your head cracked open with a baseball bat, your stomach
sliced open and your entrails spilled out, and your eyeballs ripped
out of their sockets. **** bitch



I would love to kick you hard in the face, breaking it. Then I'd cut
your stomach open with a chainsaw, exposing your intestines. Then I'd
cut your windpipe in two with a boxcutter.
Hopefully you'll get what's coming to you. **** bitch




I really hope that you get curb-stomped. It'd be hilarious to see you
begging for help, and then someone stomps on the back of your head,
leaving you to die in horrible, agonizing pain. Faggot


Shut the **** up f aggot, before you get your face bashed in and cut
to ribbons, and your throat slit.



You're dead if I ever meet you in real life, f ucker. I'll f ucking
kill you.

I would love to f ucking send your f ucking useless ass to the
hospital in intensive care, fighting for your worthless life.



(Insert banned youtube link here)

I wish you a truly painful, bloody, gory, and agonizing death, ****

Sheer poetry! Has he submitted this work for consideration in the Nobel Prize for literature?

A little more seriously: I've gotten similar messages in the past, although nothing since Spigzone & his other accounts got the banhammer.
You might want to talk to Neelycam since he's apparently received similar crap in the recent past.

Yeah seriously. I'm hurt that torquer is important enough to receive hate mail but I'm not! :(

It takes a certain special something to be as wildly offensive as I am. Someday you'll get there, my friend!

At first I thought it was because my credit card info changed and my sub didn't get renewed, but I fixed that yesterday :p

Oh look, I just got the same message again this time from "mjk827585"

Looks like this time it was a blast to me, Thoraxe, sweatshopking, kamikaziechameleon, and Ninjitsu

The real crime is being lumped in with SSK

Lol, thanks, bro. I've received pretty much this identical message a few times over the years. I received it from two different accounts today.

Offenders have been dealt with. If anyone else receives these lovely messages, please PM JBI, Ryu, or me and we'll clean it up soonest.

Have we ever had, over the years, any indication of why this keeps happening to certain people?

As I said in my PMs to SSK it's completely random and comes in waves. If it follows previous patterns it'll go on for a week or two then disappear for months.

I received a similar sort of message some time ago (though not as full of vitriol.) Ended up just deleting it as the poster had only just created the account so I expected he was some sort of spammer about to get the ban hammer anyway. Never received another.

It just seems like they focus on certain people, selected (it would seem) almost at random, for no conceivable reason whatsoever.

It's strange.

Aren't they supposed to ask for your bank account details, or at least include a link to somewhere? Or maybe that YouTube link was the thing?

Nah, this is pure hate and nastiness, not the old Nigerian 419 scheme.

Wow, now that is impressive. I got one of those once, but it was just a boring one-line FYAD sort of thing so I ignored it. Total amateur hour.
